Instead of bemoaning our fate when our anatomy can’t execute a position properly, props to the rescue! The simple resistance of a belt can increase strength, flexibility, and stamina all the while developing better alignment than would exist without the prop. Having thus planted a cellular memory in the body, our practice works towards independence. All props create a level playing field for any student to help them be back in the yoga game again.
Savasana, supported on blocks. |
